First and foremost, I am a mother of three beautiful boys. My life really began when I became a parent and realized I needed to do more with my life to make my children's lives better. After spending six years raising my first son without any help from a drug abusing husband, I decided to go back to school for a degree in Accounting. I attended and received my degree, from home, while working full-time and getting pregnant and giving birth to other two sons. I now have over 15 years of experience in the field. Two of my children have ADHD and one of those two also has serious Early Childhood Developmental Delays. I have many interests but really enjoy baking, gardening, doing crafts with the kids, home improvement/decorating, reading, writing, and doing internet research on a variety of topics.

I am in private practice in Clinton, Mississippi, where I work with children and adults who are facing life challenges.

Adult ADHD is also an area that I work with, where I provide evaluation and therapy to deal with the fall-out of living with this condition. Writing has always been a hobby, and I hope that my articles can help those who want to learn more about mental health. You can learn more about me by visiting my website at: www.drnonaowens.com.
